Upon this addition of potassium chromate, you observe no formation of precipitate. Which of the following is a valid conclusion to draw at this point? (Choose one.) Select one: 1. Hg22+ is definitely present. 2. Pb2+ is NOT present. 3. Ag+ is definitely present. 4. Pb2+ is definitely present.
You obtain an Unknown Sample from the Stockroom. You begin testing the solution through the steps outlined in the flowchart of the experiment’s PDF file. You first add HCl and centrifuge your mixture. You observe the formation of a white precipitate in the bottom of the test tube. After pouring off the supernatant liquid, you add hot water to the white precipitate. Upon addition of the hot water, you have some white precipitate still at the bottom of the test tube, and the supernatant liquid is poured off. To this liquid, potassium chromate (K2CrO4) is added. Upon this addition of potassium chromate, you observe no formation of precipitate.
